Motorized Wheelburrow Provides Extra Muscle

Motorized wheelburro provides extra muscle MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Miscellaneous 10-1-6 Why wrestle with a wheelbarrow when you can have the wheelbarrow do the work for you? It's possible with the new motorized "Wheelburro" from HP Development Co., Salt Lake City, Utah. Stan Walsh, sales representative, points out that the Wheelburro's uses include landscaping and masonry, as well as cleaning barns and hauling feed. With its engine power, it can handle jobs that are too much for a regular wheelbarrow but not large enough for a tractor. The machine's chain-driven by a 4-hp Briggs and Stratton gas engine with rope start. Engine power lets you easily wheel up 45? inclines, go down hills safely and even go over rough terrain. Equipped with forward, neutral and reverse, the Wheelburro has controls right on the handle. An added feature is that, to dump the load out of the 5.25 cu. ft. capacity dumpbed, you simply lift the dumpbed. It pivots off the front axle so you don't have to lift the entire Wheelburro. It's 30 in. tall, 60 in. long, 27-in. wide and, with the dumpbed, weighs 115 lbs. A 34 by 32-in. flatbed is available to fit in place of the dumpbed. Sells for $749.
